I have added some sound files to my daughter's website (using Homestead as host). Sound files control bar doesn't show up right (but it does in IE). Any ideas?

In Firefox the control bar is gray and the play button kind of fades into the bar. In IE, it looks like it is suppose to - dark grey/black control bar with a big blue circle (on the left) with a bright white arrow inside of it (making it obvious as to how to play the mp3).

That interface is entirely based on what plugin is being used. For IE, it looks like Windows Media Player, and in your Firefox screenshot, it looks like the QuickTime plugin is being used.
Attached is what it looks like for me (Firefox on Mac). And it looks that way in Safari as well.
As a user, you could stop Quicktime from being used for ''audio/mpeg'' files, using the instructions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/quicktime-plugin-play-audio-and-video#w_embedded-media
As a web-developer, if you want to control the media player interface, it might be better to convert your site to HTML5, then use the <audio> tag which doesn't require any plugin. For more info, read https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Using_HTML5_audio_and_video
You should probably ask in a web-developers forum.

  • I have 2 macbooks using airport.  I can send emails from 1 mac to the other but not vice versa.  Any ideas why?

    When we set up the airport we used to be able to send emails from my macbook to my husband's macbook and vice versa but can't now.  We have different email addresses and it was convenient to be able to forward emails etc. Can anyone tell me if it is the airport or the way we have our macs set up.  Thank you.

    I really don't think it's the router. Most likely, it will have to do with the email client that you are using on each of your Macs. Unless you are running an eMail server on your local network, both of your eMail clients are using mail servers on the Internet.
    If you are both using OS X Mail, you may want to post in that forum area as well to see if the Mail experts over there can help.

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

    Hi mafiose15,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Restoring your iPod to factory settings is the best way to try and get it back to working order. You can use the instructions below to restore it:
    How to restore iPod
    Verify that you have an active Internet connection, because you may need to download new versions of the iTunes and iPod Software.
    Download and install the latest version of iTunes if necessary.
    Open iTunes. Connect your iPod to your computer using the USB or FireWire cable that came with your iPod.
    After a few moments, your iPod will appear in the Source panel in iTunes.
    Select your iPod in the Source panel. You will see information about your iPod appear in the Summary tab of the main iTunes window.
    Click Restore.
    If you are using a Mac, you will be asked to enter an administrator’s name and password.
    A progress bar will appear on the computer screen, indicating that stage one of the restore process has begun. When this stage is done, iTunes will present one of two messages with instructions specific to the iPod model you are restoring.
    Disconnect iPod and connect it to iPod Power Adapter (typically applies to older iPod models).
    Leave iPod connected to computer to complete restore (typically applies newer iPod models).
    During stage two of the restore process, the iPod displays an Apple logo as well as a progress bar at the bottom of the display. It is critical that the iPod remain connected to the computer or iPod power adapter during this stage.
    Note: The progress bar may be difficult to see, because the backlight on the iPod display may be off.
    After stage two of the restore process is complete, the iTunes Setup Assistant window will appear. It will ask you to name your iPod and choose your syncing preferences, as it did when you connected your iPod for the first time.
    You can find the instructions in this article:

  • I'm trying to extend the range of an Airport Extreme 802.11g by adding an Airport Express 802.11n. I set the Express up to join the existing network, but it does not make any difference in the range of the network. What's wrong?

    Let me see if I can help you with the basic WDS configuration steps:
    Note: To help facilitate the setup, temporarily connect the AXn directly to the AEBS LAN port using an Ethernet cable. Once the setup is complete, you can move the AXn to the desired location. For all configuration steps you will be using the AirPort Utility. Before starting, be sure to jot down the AppleIDs for both base stations.
    802.11g AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) Configuration
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBS > Manual Setup > Wireless tab
    Wireless Mode: Participate in a WDS network
    Manual Setup > WDS tab
    WDS Mode: WDS main
    Allow wireless clients (checked)
    WDS Remotes: <enter the AppleID for the AXn here>
    Click on Update and allow the base station to restart.
    802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) Configuration
    AirPort Utility > Select the AXn > Manual Setup > Wireless tab
    Wireless Mode: Participate in a WDS network (Note: You may have to hold down the Option (Mac) or Control (PC) key to see this option in the list.)
    Manual Setup > WDS tab
    WDS Mode: WDS remote
    Allow wireless clients (checked)
    WDS Main: <enter the AppleID for the AEBS here>
    Click on Update and allow the base station to restart.

    Update2: There is something very wrong with wireless on mountain lion recovery. I don't know what the problem is, but this link may explain:
    http://osxdaily.com/2012/08/10/os-x-mountain-lion-10-8-1-beta-released-for-dev-t esting-may-include-wi-fi-fix/
    Wireless recovery would start out with over 25 hours estimated and kept on failing. It turns out to be a two step process of downloading a few Mbytes then a 4Gbyte .dmg file, but I couldn't even download the Mbyte file. I bought the thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter, plugged it in, restarted recovery and download of a little more than 4Gbytes took less than an hour. My limiting factor was probably comcast home internet rate of 12Mbps. The wi-fi wireless connection should be able to do over 100Mbps, so wireless shouldn't be much slower than wired, except wi-fi wireless is broken. Now that ML is installed and updated, wi-fi seems fine now, as I am using it right now, but I haven't tried downloading a big file yet.
    Don't use wi-fi wireless for Mountain Lion recovery.

    That is exactly what I was trying to determine!
    I don't think that this will work but try this first.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    Restoring the device may be what you will have to do, but two more things that you can try first are to restore from a backup if you have one....
    How to backup and restore from a backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    If that doesn't work ....
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
    If none of these things work , you should probably restore the iOS software, but backup your iPad first per the instructions and restore from the backup at the end of the process.

    Try from a computer.   You may have to reset your password.  If you can't get the comfirmation email then you can use the secret question.  Once you can log in then you change the the email address.

    Hi i am have had a lot of trouble emptying my trash. when i go to put something in there it asks from my password and the item goes off the screen, but this does not clear any space on the hard drive.

    1. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/.Trash
    2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Show Info
    from the contextual menu. An Info dialog should open.
    3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
    4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
    5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
    6. Close the Info window and test.
